SECTION 3 | Product Overview
COOLING (SEC-1212)
SEC-1212 is cooled by convection. PLACE THE SEC-1212 UNIT IN A WELL VENTILATED OPEN
AND COOL AREA. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENTILATION OPENINGS ON THE SIDES.
Cooling & Fan Control/Thermal Shut Down (SEC-1223)
SEC-1223 is cooled by convection and forced air. A temperature controlled fan has been
provided to improve cooling at higher loads. The fan is controlled by a sensor mounted
on the power transformer. THE FAN WILL BE OFF AT LOWER LOADS. It will come on only
when the temperature of the power transformer is ≥ 60ºC ± 5ºC / 140ºF ± 9ºF due to higher
loads or higher ambient temperature or poor cool air circulation around the unit. The fan
will switch off automatically at ≤ 40ºC ± 5ºC / 104ºF ± 9ºF. In case the fan fails or the air
flow is blocked, a second temperature sensor mounted on the power transformer will activate over temperature shut down at ≥ 105ºC ± 5ºC / 221ºF ± 9ºF. The output voltage will
be automatically resumed once the unit cools down to ≤ 75ºC ± 5ºC / 167ºF ± 9ºF. PLACE
THE SEC-1223 UNIT IN A WELL VENTILATED OPEN AND COOL AREA. DO NOT BLOCK THE
OPENINGS AT THE FAN DISCHARGE ON THE BOTTOM AND THE SUCTION OPENINGS ON
THE SIDES .
BATTERY CHARGING & BATTERY BACK-UP
WARNING!
These units are power supplies and not battery chargers. Do not connect these
units directly to a battery.
These units should NOT BE DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO A BATTERY for charging or for
battery back-up. Battery charging and battery back-up may be undertaken only when the
battery is connected through suitable external isolating diodes and charge limiting resistor.
The isolating diode will ensure that the battery does not back power the power supply.
When a battery is deeply discharged, it will initially draw a very large charging current and
thus, will force the power supply into current limit mode for prolonged periods. This is
harmful for the power supply. The charge limiting resistor will limit the charging current,
thereby, ensuring that the maximum charging current is well below the current limit value
of the power supply.
i
INFO
It is recommended that optional battery back-up module BBM-1225 may be used
to convert SEC-1212/SEC-1223 for battery back-up application.

Possible Cause
Remedy
No AC power from the
AC outlet
Check AC power is available at the AC
outlet. Breaker feeding the AC outlet may
have tripped.
Internal AC side fuse
is blown
Open the top cover and check the AC side
fuse. Replace if blown.
If the fuse blows again, the input section is
damaged. Please call Tech Support.
ON / OFF Switch is ON
• Switch is lighted
• No DC output
Unit has shut down due to over
temperature – Temperature of
output transformer windings is:
≥ 105°C ± 5°C / 221°F ± 9°F
(For SEC-1223 only)
Check that the fan is running. If not, the
fan / fan control circuit may have been damaged. Call Tech Support.
Check that the fan suction vents on the
sides of the unit and the discharge vents on
the bottom of the unit are not blocked.
The unit will reset automatically when the
transformer windings cool down to
≤ 75°C ± 5°C / 167°F ± 9°F
ON / OFF Switch is ON
• Switch is lighted
• DC Output voltage
drops
GFCI outlet / GFCI breaker
supplying AC power to
the unit trips when the
unit is switched ON
If the voltage loses regulation
and drops to < 13.5V, the unit is
overloaded and is in current limit.
The load is trying to draw ≥ the
current limit value
Reduce the current drawn by the load to
less than the continuous rating.
If the voltage drop is considerable with voltage < 2V, the load
side is seeing a short circuit and
short circuit current limited to the
current limit value is being driven
into the short circuit
Switch OFF the load. Remove the short
circuit on the load side.
Additional RF noise currents from
the unit that are filtered to Earth
Ground increase the net Leakage
Current on the GFCI outlet / GFCI
breaker to > 5mA
Switch OFF other SMPS devices operating
from the same GFCI outlet / GFCI breaker to
reduce the net leakage current to < 5mA
Move the unit to another GFCI outlet / GFCI
breaker that has lesser number of SMPS
load(s) or no SMPS load
Power the unit from normal, non GFCI
outlet or from an outlet not protected by
GFCI breaker

SECTION 5 | Limiting Electromagnetic Interference
!
CAUTION!
Conducted and radiated noises in this unit are limited as per the applicable National / International Standards. In North America, the applicable standard is FCC Part 15(B) for Class “B”
Digital Devices for Residential Installations. The corresponding European standard is EN55022,
Class “B” & EN610000-3-2, 3.
This unit generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, this does not guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the measures recommended in the following paragraphs.
UN-INTENTIONAL RF NOISE GENERATED BY SWITCHED MODE POWER
SUPPLIES (SMPS)
Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) employ high frequency switching (25 KHz in this
unit) and thus, are a source of radio interference, a recipient of radio interference and a
conduit of radio interference. (Older Linear Type, low frequency 50 / 60 Hz transformer
based power supplies do not employ high frequency switching voltages and will be quieter
as compared to SMPS).
The primary emission sources originate in the switching devices due to their fast switching
current transitions: harmonics of the switching frequency and broadband noise created by
under-damped oscillations in the switching circuit. The secondary source is from the bridge
rectifier, both rectifier noise and diode recovery. The AC input rectifier / capacitor in the
front end of the SMPS (excepting those with Power Factor correction) generate power supply harmonics due to the non-linear input current waveform. The noise is both conducted
and radiated through the input power cord and the DC output wiring to the radio.
FILTRATION OF CONDUCTED NOISE
The conducted RF noise from this SMPS unit is limited to the maximum allowable
levels by internal filtration. The filtered RF noise currents (< few hundred micro Amps) are
bypassed to the chassis of the power supply. The chassis is, in turn, connected to
the Earth Ground pin of the AC input power cord (for Class 1 units). Thus, the filtered
noise currents are intentionally leaked to the Earth Ground. This is termed as the “Earth
Leakage Current”.
EXCESSIVE RF OUTPUT INTERFERENCE BY SMPS DUE TO INCOMING
RF INTERFERENCE WHEN POWERING RADIO TX / RX
SMPS are also recipients of radio interference. The normal operation of the power supply can be disturbed due to RF noise getting coupled into the power supply. Thus, the
power supply may generate excessive RF noise and lose output voltage regulation due to
excessive transmitter energy being coupled through the AC / DC lines to the power supply’s regulator feedback path. This may be due to antenna being too close or due to the
antenna or feed system not radiating properly. First check the antenna system SWR.
SAMLEX AMERICA, INC. | 9
SECTION 5 | Limiting Electromagnetic Interference
Then, if necessary, relocate either the antenna or the power supply farther apart. The
receiver may “hear” the power supply. A slowly moving, slightly buzzing carrier heard in
the receiver may be caused by the antenna being too close. As with the transmitter related
noise pick up, a loose coaxial connector or a broken or a missing ground may aggravate
this problem. Normally, this noise will be below the background or “band” noise. Increase
the separation between the power supply and the receiving antenna. Use an outdoor
antenna. This will reduce the amount of signal picked up from the power supply and also
increase the amount of the desired signal.
ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES FOR REDUCING RF NOISE
• Use additional appropriate AC Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Power Line Filter
rated for minimum 10A immediately before the AC input of the power supply. For
example, consider suitability of Model # 10VN1 from TE Connectivity www.te.com
or similar. Filtered, Ferrite Coated Cord Set is another choice. These cord sets, with
integral line interference filters, reduce Common and Differential Mode Interferences
over a wide frequency range. Because they are shielded, they are also effective against
radiated interferences. In addition to the built-in filter networks, the cable conductors
are coated with an RF absorbing ferrite compound. This provides additional attenuation at high frequencies that is lacking in most regular LC filters. The RF absorption of
the ferrite-coated cable avoids resonances at high frequencies, reducing the conducted
and radiated RF noises even further. For example, consider suitability of EMC Cord
“IMU-14” from EMC Eupen www.emceupen.com or similar.
• Use additional appropriate DC radio frequency interference (RFI) power line filter
rated for minimum 30 A immediately after the DC output of the power supply. For
example, consider suitability of 30A filter Model # “FD10EE030” from Curtis Industries
www.curtisind.com or similar.
• Twist the Positive and Negative wires from the output of the power supply to the radio.
• The DC side Positive and Negative outputs of these power supplies are isolated from
the chassis. As explained earlier, the noise currents are filtered to the chassis of the unit
and the chassis is connected to the Earth Ground through the Earth Ground Pin of the
AC power outlet receptacle. Avoid connecting (referencing) the DC Negative output
terminal of the power supply to the Earth Ground.
• Connect a ¼” wavelength of wire on the Negative terminal of the power supply. Connect one end of the wire to the Negative terminal and leave the other end free. The
wavelength corresponds to the wavelength of the interfering frequency. (May not be
practical for long wave lengths).
[Formula: Wave length (Meters) = 300 / frequency in MHz]
COMBINED FILTERED NOISE CURRENTS FROM MULTIPLE SMPS ON A
BRANCH CIRCUIT MAY TRIP GROUND FAULT CIRUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI)
During malfunction or an accident, the metal chassis of a device may get energized to
unsafe voltage due to internal high voltage section coming in contact with the chassis.
If a person standing on Earth touches this energized chassis, a leakage current
10 | SAMLEX AMERICA, INC.
SECTION 5 | Limiting Electromagnetic Interference
proportional to the person’s skin resistance will flow through the person’s body to Earth
Ground. The leakage current through the body is higher when the skin contact resistance is lower i.e. if the skin is wet or wounded. This leakage current does not return to
the power source but is dissipated in Earth Ground. A leakage current of > 5mA could
produce lethal electrical shock. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is used for safety
against electrical shock due to leakage. GFCI measures the difference between the
current sent to the load and returned from the load and will trip and disconnect the
power circuit if the difference is > 5 mA. GFCIs are normally installed in AC Branch
Circuits feeding power outlets in wet areas like marine craft, RVs, spas, hot-tubs,
kitchens, washrooms, etc.
As explained earlier, RF noise filtration circuits in SMPS generate intentional Earth Leakage
Current. SMPS are used extensively as DC power sources in modern day electrical / electronic devices e.g. Audio / Video / Computing devices, power supplies, battery chargers etc.
A single GFCI outlet / GFCI breaker may be serving multiple SMPS loads and therefore, will
be sensing the sum of all the Earth Leakage Currents and, if the sum is > 5mA after connecting this unit, the GFCI will trip. In such a case, disconnect other SMPS based device(s)
being served by this GFCI one by one till the net leakage current is reduced to < 5mA
and the GFCI does not trip. Other solution is to power this unit from a GFCI outlet / GFCI
breaker that does not have any SMPS load or power from an outlet that is not protected
by GFCI.
